Rangers are rare. Shortbox Rangers are REALLY rare. Rangers in that gorgeous , one year only colour scheme are even more rare. and , to top off all that rarity, it's just pretty!!

are you sure about the one year only color scheme? i had a 64 shortie cc that was raven black with the rangoon red acccents just like 66org-ranger's truck exept my carpet was red and the seat was a crazy red/black/white checker pattern, but other than that and the ranger option, it was identical. i can't prove it as the truck has long since past, but i thought the color scheme was the best combo i had ever seen in an old truck and i'm glad to have seen another almost like it in this thread.

My truck has carpet that covers the tank, I don't think the 66 model had the fiberglass cover over the tank?

I'm pretty sure the raven black and red combo was available in 64,65 & 66. I have pictures of a 65 CC swb with that color combo.
Take care

Wally, good to see you made it over here. I remember drooling over your truck when I first seen it a few years ago back on the old site. Your interior helped inspire me to keep mine as stock as possible too, except for the "rare"

Hurst option that mine has.

I think it was club member GregD that told me it was a one-year only combo, as it's his fave. I looked at the colour charts and black isn't even on them for 64,65, or 66 ....so who knows? LOL
